Is winter drying your skin out already?

It seems to be doing a number on mine already, and I tend to notice it most on my face.

You may know what I’m talking about–those dry, flaky areas that seem to crop up when the temperature drops outside.

I was absolutely thrilled to find this post on A Blossoming Life recently.

It uses coconut oil and baking soda, two ingredients I always have on hand anymore, so I tried it out.

The results?

LOVED it. It definitely made my skin feel much softer and smoother.

Highly recommended!!

All you do is take about 1 tsp of baking soda and mix it with 1/2 to 1 TB of coconut oil. Wet your face with warm water, then scrub the mixture in, rubbing in little circles all over your face. Wash with warm water and you are done.

I wouldn’t do this every day, perhaps once or twice a week.

Have a beautiful New Year!
